On more than 3,500 square meters booth space we presented new developments from our comprehensive portfolio for the food and pharma industries and registered a new record number of international trade visitors and decision-makers.

In addition to presenting individual machines and system solutions, we placed special focus on our new and comprehensive industry 4.0 solutions. We are confident that in the near future our portfolio will always comprise the combination of machines and services plus digitally connected solutions. The huge interest in these new solutions at interpack 2017 has affirmed us in our decision to continue walking on this path.

Food-Highlights

A special highlight for biscuit manufacturers was our new system solution producing single, pile and slug packs on two independently operating lanes. This system ensures a gentle handling and maximum performance with minimal footprint and can reach an output of up to 2400 biscuits per minute. Read more

Furthermore, we introduced new scalable packaging systems for the gentle handling and packaging of delicate products like biscuits in slug and pile packs. A modular design allows for layout flexibility and scalability, enabling manufacturers to expand their production capacity easily or increase the level of automation – from entry level, hand-fed machines, right through to fully automated solutions.

For producers of liquid and pumpable food, we introduced our new, modular system for linear cup filling – from the hygiene level clean-fill up to the highest level aseptic. We developed the new solution to address the key market requirements of dairy producers, such as hygienic operation, from low to high output, compact spaces, and ease of use. Read more

Pharma-Highlights

A highlight making its world debut is the Xelum platform for continuous tablet production. The system continuously manufactures powder while intelligent sensors permanently supervise production conditions. Read more

Furthermore we also showcased our latest addition to its ALF 5000 series of filling and closing machines. This platform is capable of very high output: up to 600 containers per minute. For especially careful processing, a patent-pending carrying rake transport can be added, which slightly lifts the glass containers to keep them from scraping against the machine guides.

Another eye-catching highlight was the new developed KLV-series for container closure integrity testing for fixed containers. A vacuum process ensures high inspection sensitivity and enables the inspection of up to 600 glass containers per minute using unique group testing. The showcased KLV 1360 completes our existing inspection portfolio for liquid pharmaceuticals. Read more

The Maintenance Support System (MSS), for example, has been developed by the Bosch division Assembly Systems and Special Machinery and is already in use in several Bosch own facilities. The MSS is designed for maintenance staff and machine setters and supports all kinds of maintenance and repair tasks, which means that legwork and repair times decrease significantly, and spare parts are not searched for, but rather found.Read more

For improved process quality, the Condition Monitoring platform supplies details about the machine, line, or process status in question. On the basis of predefined tolerance limits – such as for temperature or cycle time – machine operators are automatically notified in the event of a deviation. This ensures process quality and makes it possible to take action early on, before a malfunction occurs. Read more

On more than 3,500 sqm, Bosch Packaging Technology presents new developments from its comprehensive portfolio for the pharmaceuticals, food, and confectionery industries combined with after-sales service solutions for preventive and reactive maintenance.

Industry 4.0 is a topic of very high interest at this year’s interpack. Bosch will show that the connected facility already is reality in the processing and packaging industry. Visitors to our booth can experience the manifold benefits live: higher productivity and efficiency achieved by improved transparency and operator guidance, decreases machine downtimes, quality control data monitoring in real time as well as reduced energy consumption. People as key players are always in the focus of our developments: by implementing industry 4.0 solutions they receive better support for their daily work than ever before.

Visit us from May 4th to 10th, 2017 at interpack in Duesseldorf, Germany, hall 6, stand A 30-C58. We are looking forward to seeing you at the show! Find all important information about our exhibits and events on our interpack Website.
